5 THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF THE RIGHTEOUS AMONG THE NATIONS Rescuers of Jews during the Holocaust Editor-in-Chief: Israel Gutman Hard cover, 22X28 cm. The concept of Righteous Among the Nations is based on the Talmudic saying, He who saves one human being is as if he saves an entire world. The more than 23,000 Righteous Among the Nations are from all nationalities, religious denominations, and social groups, each with a deeply human story of the preservation of human values in the midst of absolute moral collapse. In the darkness of the Nazi occupation, a few lights flickered: the Righteous Among the Nations Yad Vashem has commemorated those who risked their lives, who heeded nothing but their hearts and their human conscience, and who rescued Jews.

32 DIARIES A HIDDEN DIARY FROM THE ŁÓDŹ GHETTO Heniek Fogel Editor: Helene Sinnreich Heniek (Hersz) Fogel was 16 years old when the Nazis invaded Poland. Like most Jews in Łódź, Yiddish was his first language; however, he was educated in Polish, and his diary was written in Polish. Being a 19-year-old young man when he started writing, Fogel could maturely describe life in the Łódź Ghetto. Although the first few pages of the diary are missing, it gives a detailed account that covers two years beginning in March 1942 and ending with the last entry in May During those difficult days, Heniek recorded harsh portions of the ghetto experience the devastating deportation of his brother and the death of his father, the overwhelming hunger endured and other tribulations of his family and friends, as well as internal ghetto politics and rumors about the political situation outside the ghetto. Before being deported to Auschwitz Concentration Camp in August 1944, along with his mother and sister, Heniek hid the diary under the floorboards of the apartment in which they were living.

No pp., di copertina dura, 25X29 cm. $62 (spese postali incluse) PORTUGUESE O HOLOCAUSTO As Perguntas Mais Frequentes Editores: Avraham Milgram e Robert Rozett O Holocausto é um fenômeno que ocorreu entre os anos abrangendo um grande número de países, povos e culturas. Motivado por uma ideologia racial genocidal nazista, resultou no assassinato de quase seis milhőes de judeus europeus, principalmente em campos de extermínio construídos para este fim. O tema do Holocausto nos atrai e nos deixa perplexos por várias razões, entre elas pela condescendência pela qual milhões na Alemanha e em outros países ocupados se dispuseram a participar, direta ou indiretamente, na perseguição, expulsão e morte dos judeus. Como foi humanamente possível? Apesar do Holocausto ser recorrente na mídia e na cinematografia, ele é de fato pouco conhecido. As perguntas e respostas que se encontram nesta publicação são de fácil entendimento e proporcionam uma breve introdução para quem deseja ter uma aproximação ao que foi o Holocausto ou mesmo ampliar seus conhecimentos a esse respeito.

65 63 OTHER LANGUAGES ROMANIAN PRELUDIU LA ASASINAT Pogromul de la Iaşi, 29 iunie 1941 Jean Ancel La o săptămână după ce trupele germane şi române au atacat Uniunea Sovietică, comunitatea evreilor din oraşul Iaşi, aflat în apropierea frontului, a fost zguduită de un pogrom de mari proporţii, iniţiat de autorităţile româneşti, cu sprijinul trupelor germane aflate în oraş. Pe lângă miile de evrei ucişi în cele două zile ale măcelului (29 30 iunie 1941), alte mii de evrei au pierit în sinistrele «trenuri ale morţii». Pe baza unei vaste documentaţii inedite, istoricul Jean Ancel a reconstituit întreaga pregătire şi desfăşurare a masacrului (evaluat la peste de victime), responsabilitatea autorităţilor de la Bucureşti în frunte cu Ion Antonescu, ca şi întregul mecanism de falsificare sau distrugere a documentelor pentru a disculpa pe cei vinovaţi de organizarea şi executarea măcelului.

El avea 10 ani cȃnd trupele Germane și Romane au ocupat aceste zone, la începutul lunii Iulie El și părinţii lui au reușit să se salveze, după ce trupele Romanești au masacrat mii de evrei la ocuparea localităţii, însă au fost deportaţi împreună cu toţi evreii care au supravieţuit masacrul, spre Transnistria. Tatăl său a fost ucis mișelește pe drum de călăii romani. Yosef și mama sa au ajuns la ghetoul Moghilev, prima și ultima etapă a calvarului trăit în Transnistria. Aici au suferit de foamete permanentă, pătimind de primejdia declanșării acţiilor, a epidemiilor și a brutalităţilor autorităţilor romanești. În martie 1944 au fost eliberaţi de Armata Roșie. S-au întors la Edineţi, Cernăuţi. Au trecut graniţa spre Romania, Iugoslavia și de acolo au plecat pe un vapor spre Eretz Israel, cu imigranţi ilegali. Au fost deţinuţi de flota britanică și transportaţi cu toţi în Cipru.
